Burger King Birthday

Ponte Vedra Beach

Steve's band

Fun on the 4th!

Our 4th of July this year included travel to Birmingmham for a barage of family reunions, fireworks, birthday celebration (Bethany on the 11th), and the always anticipated visits with family.

Potty Training

Yes, we're deep in the trenches of potty training, which means the potty goes everwhere with us, as does a healthy supply of gummy bears.

Beach Trip

Had a great week at at the Beach the last week of June with Steve's parents, brother Phillip, and Nancy and Ben Anderson (Steve's Aunt and Uncle). Got a lot of great pictures, so I'll post a few here...one day I'll spend the time to figure out how to incorporate an album to e-blogger.

Summer Playgroup

Today was great!! Our playgroup is planning to have an organized activity every week or so and then pool time on fridays. Today we let the children make their own smocks to use for any messy activities we do (painting, cooking, etc.) Then they played in the water out back to get all the paint off, and ended the day with some dress-up and bunk bed climbing in Bethany's room....we love our friends!

A lot to Catch up on...

Ok...Bridget and I realize we have a lot to catch everyone up on since her last post...I'll try to be brief. First of all, we found out two weeks ago that WE'RE HAVING A BOY! We are so thankful and thrilled about that, but it is very difficult to get our arms around "boyhood" after getting used to the surprising joys of a little girl. We can't wait to meet Stephen Klein Adams, Jr. "Klein". (yes, we plan to call him Klein...get used to it).

I included a video and several pictures below that outline our last few weeks. First, the video. Yes, Bethany can now count to 10 and loves her numbers. She can also say her ABC's with a little help at "H" and some "muddy" letters in the middle. We are so incredibly proud of her and so excited to watch her learn new things about God's creation each day.

The pictures. After a week of "Banking School" up in Athens, GA last week, I met Bridget and Bethany at the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. It was a blast. The highlight by far was the Tropical exhibit which included 45 versions of "Dorie", 68 versions of "Nemo" and 12 "Marlins". Also pictured is Bethany "crashing" in her swing right before dinner Wednesday evening due to a missed nap. Enjoy.
